A form of acting by changing your voice to sound like someone else. I actually have a large interest in voice acting. I can change my voice to sound like a few different people...my favourite voice that I can change mine to sound like would be "Mr. Tickle" from the "Mr. Men Show". His voice is not that difficult to mimic, actually. My impression is not the same as Jeff Stewart (Voice Actor of Mr. Tickle), but it comes pretty close.
Is anyone else interested in voice acting?

Not really, but I have been known to "sound like so-and-so". X3
Voice actors, however, are a different story. Adam Wylie, James Arnold Taylor, Phil LaMarr, Tara Strong, and Rob Paulsen, all the way. But I digress.

I SWEAR TO YOU!!!!oneoneone!!! OMG THATS LIKE, SO! LIKE, TOTALLEH COOL!"
People get too excited. :/ And the above is only when singing said song WITH them, otherwise, it's unnoticable. I've been told that only in those conditions. And it's mostly been friends.
Hitting a note perfectly and sounding like someone else is two different things, IMO.

For speech and debate? You are allowed to do silly voices for that? That actually sounds like fun.
And hitting a certain pitch to match a singer is pretty different from trying to sound like a character from a cartoon, movie, and such. I would sing if I could, but...I am ashamed of my voice. My shame actually motivates me to try to find a perfect voice for myself instead of my normal voice. If you practice enough, you could probably change your original voice completely.
However, this is just a theory of mine, so it is a doubtful dream. But I do hope to become a decent voice actor one day.

That sounds pretty cool, Akira_Cat. But how is it that some female voice actresses can sound like males? It is very cool, but it is weird. I know that Candi Milo did two boy voices (ChalkZone) and it really was interesting. Tara Strong also does boy voices (Robot Boy, Xiaolin Showdown, and others, I think), so it is something that I would like to study.

I WAS good at doing Pikachu, but since my voice deepened, I can't do it anymore. XD
